Bath resealing for Talke Pits homes

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Bath resealing at your home in Talke Pits

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. If you’re dealing with sealant that’s split or lifting and black spots in the silicone, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Questions from Talke Pits

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Staffordshire.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What areas do you cover?

All of Staffordshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Talke Pits

  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Shower trays & enclosures

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Why it’s worth resealing in Talke Pits
